These little secrets and little games are becoming a little too dangerous too fast.

Zoey knows that if she hadn't taken that one step away from Audra, she would be the one who would have fallen in the water. Sure, she saved her life, but that doesn't matter when she is the one sitting in the back of a police car, with Audra's life in danger. It may have been self-defense, but no one was there to back Zoey up, and with her past, it's going to be hard to defend herself. Will her dad shake his head in disgust or help her out?

After Tom reached his breaking point, and with Chad oblivious to what his supposedly best friend thought about him, the two went at it. Tom survived while Chad went into a coma. Once Chad was whisked away to the hospital, Tom finally understood what he did, now wanting to be his friend once again. But can Chad even wake up to forgive him?

Allison is terrified with the events that have happened. First, her mother was taken to jail, her dad left, and now her ex-boyfriend is in the hospital. She definitely doesn't need anything else to happen. Of course, that would be Kelly's job to make sure it does. She was a little uncaring with what happened with Chad, btt only Allison saw her true colors. It wouldn't hurt Kelly to act like a loving girlfriend, since her mother is an actress.

Little secrets... dangerous mistakes.

LIFE OR DEATH is the most gripping and thrilling novel in the series so far. One life hangs in the balance while the others all must fix their mistakes. But can they do it without getting hurt again? LITTLE SECRETS is an addicting series that will make you turn off the TV.

This book is called Little Secrets, life or death. In this book, Chad (main character) broke up with his girlfriend, Kelly( main character.) When he broke up with her, he tells Kelly's friend, Alison that he loves her! Right when she wanted to answer him, he fainted. Two hours later, Chad was in a comma. Kelly saw that everyone was distracted with the fact that Chad was in a comma, she took advantage of this and said that her and Chad were still going out. They only one who knew the truth was Alison.

I noticed that while I was reading this book, I saw that between me and the characters I had a text-to-self connection. Just like Kelly took the advantage and said that her and chad were still going out, in elementry school, my friend was doing the same thing. In fourth grade, we were doing a Phantom of the Opera play. My best friend Kristina want the main part which was the role of Christine. Yet my other friend,Gloriela wanted that same role. I was the only one who knew why Gloriela wanted that part was because she wanted to be teacher's pet. So basically,I felt just like Alison that only she knew that chad had broke up with Kelly.

I gave this book exactly four stars. The reason why is because well for four reasons. The first reason is that I just love the way the author; Emily Blake puts the series ... just leaving you speechless and wondering what's going to happen next. My second reason is because I liked the way that once you read the first few pages and it's like you don't even want to put the book down. My third reason is that I really like the way that the author makes one of the main character's as self centered person that doesn't care about anything or anybody. I think that the book was good, not awesome but good. The person who I would recommend it to is a person who would like the type of books that have mixed emotions.

Although I liked Tom's drama of being guilty of Chad's being in a coma, Kelly is really starting to annoy me. Like God, how can people like her?

BTW, I sooo hate that after waiting for a long time, Chad finally said that he still loves Alison, but then he cracks his head open, and lose his memories. What the hell? How could that be more gayer???

But don't get me wrong, I love this series, I'm just mad. =(
